🎉 Wow, this year’s WiPA Summer Party sold out within half an hour! Huge thanks to PoliMonitor for sponsoring the event. The WiPA team are really excited to see so many of you next month, and for those of you who missed out on getting a ticket this time, don’t worry, we have a really busy and fantastic schedule of events to look forward to coming up over the next six months. Please make sure you're signed up to our mailing list, and are following us on Eventbrite directly to make sure you get alerts when new events go on sale. In the meantime, you can add your name to the Summer Party waitlist through the link below. Stay tuned for details about our guest speakers for the evening! More generally, we’re trying to shake things up with our events schedule, giving you more choice on timings, formats and subjects, including both training and speed mentoring, and we’ll always try to give you as much advance warning as possible when tickets will go on sale. As always, we love to hear from you about our events, so please do send your feedback in a direct message on LinkedIn. Given how popular some of our events are proving, we’re particularly keen to hear from WiPA members who haven’t been along to any of our events before – specifically, we’re considering whether we might be able to trial an advance ticket access window for people who haven’t managed to get tickets in the past. We look forward to seeing you at a WiPA event soon!

Today, in recognition of International Women's Day, we celebrate our founders, Adrianna Sekula and Jo Newell! 🥳 🤔 Did you know that despite women constituting over half of the United States population, the ownership of businesses by women stands at just 40%? In Central Florida, this figure drops even further to a mere 20%. However, there is promising progress, with both the percentage of women-owned businesses and minority-owned businesses steadily climbing each year. ⛰️ Nonetheless, women continue to face obstacles in getting access to start and successfully run and scale their businesses. With this in mind, we challenge our followers to look for ways to amplify and support women-owned and founded businesses today, and always. Share their posts, recommend their names in conversation, offer to be a mentor, and connect them with key contacts. Together, we can empower more women to pursue their passions. 💪🏼💪🏾 #InternationalWomensDay #WeRiseByLiftingOthers #WomenSupportingWomen
